The Prosperity Gospel

[Guest Jigsaw_final_piece]

So here's the thing:

A fella named Jagsaw (first person uneducated premier league footballer speak) started a thread here about how the Nirvair Khalsa Jatha were accumulating vast personal wealth in the name of Sikhi. After that thread started here NKJ, who were at the time on a worldwide tour in Canada, started to change their 'religious' sermons to justify their riches. We were on page 3 thread of the thread here when a source tells me they started the new theme in Edmonton, Alberta. By the time they came back to England the theme was in full swing. Their first program was in Southampton. They said "you can't help poor people unless you have accumulated money.....to be in a position of helping the poor you have to first have money to give to the poor.....,..we're financially well off because we done lots of path and seva.............You too can be rich by doing path"

This, my friends, is the prosperity gospel.  Our parcharaks have reversed Bhai Lalo's and Malik Bhago's moral fable.  And gone rich in the process.

Well, they're not entirely wrong. To give, one must have. 

In terms of attachment, should we not accept that which Vaheguru blesses us with? Accept poverty or abundance equally as it is Vaheguru's kirpa or hukam?

Now that NKJ has wealth are they sharing it, or succumbing to lobh and moh and hoarding it?

"must" Gurjant ?   To give one MUST first have what ?   Compassion ?   Love ?  Humility ? or MONEY ?     It's  question of values and attachment.

No. Both poverty and extreme richness are man made things. Waheguru gave us, as men, the capabilities to achieve either equality or inequality. Man himself, not Waheguru, has created the inequality.

Good question.It needs to be asked more loudly.
